Here’s another big win for DEI hiring—Mark Brave, New Hampshire’s first black sheriff, just pled guilty to a laundry list of felonies. Shocking? No, not one bit. This is what happens when you focus on checking diversity boxes instead of hiring the best person for the job. Sadly, we see this happening everywhere these days.

Brave’s fall from grace is nothing new. Sadly, it follows a very familiar pattern if you’ve been paying attention to the left’s DEI circus. Back in August 2023, Brave was arrested for stealing nearly $19,000 in county funds. This “stand-up guy” used taxpayer money to fund his extramarital affair and bankroll romantic trips to Boston and Florida.

Mark filed bogus claims for airfare, hotels, and meals—all while conveniently covering up the fact that he wasn’t exactly traveling solo… or with his wife. He actually doctored receipts to hide the identity of his mistress.

But don’t worry—it gets worse…

Sheriff Brave flat-out lied to a grand jury. He spun stories about attending official events, meeting a US congressman, and, of course, denied his mistress was anywhere near those trips. All lies. One Boston getaway, supposedly for a “charity fundraiser,” turned out to be nothing more than a romantic dinner cruise with his side piece.

Watch:

This is the disaster you get when being the first matters more than being the best.

Fosters Daily Democrat:

 Mark Brave, former Strafford County sheriff, has reached a deal in which he could avoid prison while pleading guilty to to multiple felony charges for stealing county money he used to fund trips connected to his extramarital affair and lying about it to a grand jury.

However, sentencing for perjury charges will be left to the discretion of the court and could still result in prison time for Brave, according to Attorney General John Formella. Both the state and the defendant will present arguments on the perjury charges.

Brave faces a maximum penalty of 7-14 years in prison and fines of up to $8,000 on the perjury charges. Sentencing will take place in 90 days in the Strafford County Superior Court.

Brave entered guilty pleas in the Merrimack County Superior Court Thursday to Class B felony theft by deception, Class B felony falsifying physical evidence, and two Class B felonies of perjury for lying to a grand jury.

The disastrous and dangerous DEI movement in this country is something we’ve been covering for years—every angle, every mess, every time.

As a matter of fact, Sheriff Brave’s little scandal feels all too familiar—just think back to another DEI disaster we covered. Who could forget Big Fani and her lover Nathan Wade?

Revolver:

Willis’s illicit relationship could have easily remained hidden, or at least inconsequential, if she had been even slightly less stupid. But she just could not help herself. It wasn’t enough to hire her lover. She had to make him special counsel on by far her most high-profile case, which would attract by a million miles the most press attention and the most expensive, diligent lawyers. It wasn’t enough to carry on a tryst with Willis. She had to go on one lavish vacation after another with him.

Willis’s excuses for her behavior are the sort that require a lobotomy to accept. Her relationship with Willis was entirely appropriate and aboveboard, yet Willis felt compelled to hide it because, well, *mumble mumble*. Was Willis using her highly-paid lover as a conduit to get those vacations? Not at all. By happenstance, Fani just keeps $15,000 (15 large) in cash in her home at all times for just this sort of thing. And by golly, it turns out Wade liked to do the same thing. How handy!

Fani Willis is the poster girl for the new “DMV America.” The Revolver piece goes on:

The Hill:

The special prosecutor described Willis as an “independent, proud woman” who insisted on paying her own way and used cash for “safety reasons,” not to obscure the transactions. He also said he did not deposit the cash Willis paid him for their trips together.

“You don’t have a single, solitary deposit slip to corroborate or support any of your allegations that you were paid by Mrs. Willis in cash, do you?” Shafer attorney Craig Gillen pressed.

“No sir,” Wade replied, adding he would either “spend it or put it in my pocket or put it in the hotel’s safe.”

“Safety reasons!” It’s the sort of lame lie that belongs alongside “Hunter Biden was a top anti-corruption expert.” Incompetent in a wholly stupid, almost lazy way, she covers her tracks with a tale that isn’t even meant to convince, just to make one sputter at seeing a person possibly get away with the thinnest excuse imaginable. The stupidity of such affirmative action cases so unfathomably defies conventional understanding that it extends beyond the merely ludicrous and would achieve an endearing, childlike quality were it not for the devastating consequences to the country.

The American regime is groaning both in public and behind closed doors at the trouble Fani Willis has stirred up for them. But just as Fani deserves her ongoing humiliation, so do all of her enablers. They have asked, loudly and proudly, for every part of this.

After all, Fani Willis is the avatar of DMV America—the combination of racial caste system and kakistocracy that the American regime is determined to erect in what was once the world’s proudest meritocratic society.

This is the ugly truth about DEI: it’s not helping minorities. It’s actually setting them up to fail.

When people are handed positions, they’re not qualified for and don’t deserve, simply to check off a box, disasters like Mark Brave and Big Fani happen.

And when these DEI hires fall—hard—it doesn’t just humiliate them, it makes it even tougher for qualified minorities to break through the noise. DEI isn’t about opportunity—it’s about twisted left-wing optics. And it’s doing far more harm than good.
